Audio adapter cable C2G BO-AUX073 — Lightning to 3.5 mm jack, gray

The C2G BO-AUX073 Lightning to 3.5 mm jack audio adapter cable provides a simple wired connection between Apple devices with a Lightning port and audio equipment that uses a 3.5 mm analog input. This gray adapter cable lets you connect headphones, portable speakers or car stereos that do not support Bluetooth or that require a physical aux input. The cable delivers direct line-level audio transmission for listening and hands-free calls when used with compatible headsets and devices.

Advantages

The adapter offers a plug-and-play solution with no additional drivers required. Its compact, single-cable design reduces clutter and makes it easy to carry or store. The wired connection ensures consistent audio quality and low latency compared with wireless alternatives. The neutral gray finish is unobtrusive and blends with most devices and car interiors.

Suitable for

• Connecting Lightning-only Apple phones and tablets to 3.5 mm headphones
• Playing audio through car stereos or home speakers with an aux input
• Hands-free calls using compatible headsets with inline microphone

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the Lightning connector into the Lightning port of your Apple device. Plug the 3.5 mm jack into the aux input of headphones, speakers or a car audio system. Play audio from your device as usual; the adapter routes sound through the connected 3.5 mm device. For headsets with a microphone, ensure your app or device is configured to use the external microphone if supported.

Usage recommendations

To maintain reliable connections, avoid sharp bending near the connector ends and disconnect by holding the connector housing rather than pulling the cable. Keep the adapter dry and store it in a protected compartment when not in use.
